    Default zillionth name question... sorry!

    ok if this has been discussed please point me in the right direction, but i have thoroughly checked the search results and even clicked the magnifying glass and 'search for similar topics' and nothing has come up.
    lots of stuff about stage names but my questions are:
    are there many dancers who use their real name?
    is it a bad idea for me to?

    i have an unusual first name already and when i auditioned the manager suggested i just use that because it was 'far out' hahahaha a compliment i guess...

    just needed some input please!

    also if i have somehow overlooked a topic like this i'm sorry delete my thread but i definitely couldn't find anything

    There are a couple of girls at my club that use their real names. I really don't see that it is a huge problem to use your real name. Without a last name/car info guys don't know any more about you whether you use a real or fake name.

    I like having a fake name.

    The purpose isn't to deceive or protect my identity, but to help me play a character....which effectively keeps me sane.

    I personally don't recommend it. I think it's fun to go to work and change into a whole different person. If I ever feel guilty or nervous, I can just blame it on Cassandra

    I agree with what everyone said. I am a different person at the club than I am in my regular life and it really helps you to become someone else. There's a couple girls in my club that use their real name but I like having a stage name. My stage name, however, is a normal name not something like 'Peaches or Mercedes' or anything like that. But do what makes you most comfortable but you probably would enjoy changing it for the reasons listed and it makes it fun, then you can be whoever you want. Plus the customers won't believe you anyway when you truthfully tell them that it's your real name. *sigh* *rolls eyes*

    i've known a couple of girls that danced by their real names. if you really like yours, and think it suits you, then consider keeping it. you could always change it later on...although that sometimes leads to complications if you stay at the same club. i personally never danced by my real name, although i knew one dancer whose stage name was my real one. i needed a stage name to maintain my secret idenity (lol) and to keep my work life and real life seperate. do whatever works for you

    I dance by my middle name. Its nice cause it doesnt really feel like me because I dont get to use my middle name at all in real life.

    thankyou for the replies everyone, much obliged. my first night is tomorrow so i have to make up my mind pretty quick. argh!
    i might keep my real name because i am a dumbass at times and probably wouldn't realise if people were calling my name or the dj was announcing me....
    maybe i'll sleep on it!

    You can dance by your real name and still have a character. That's what I do. I have a fake last name, though. I'm Morrigan Slayde at work. Morrigan S____ at home.

    At work, I'm a saucy vibrant woman afraid of nothing.

    In real life I'm afraid to ask for a bus ticket to the city.

    Bah.

    Anyway, it's no big deal to use your real name.

    That is no bueno, Lucki. The only thing that would worry me about using a fake name is when the dj calls me to go on stage by something other than my real name is I won't notice it's me he's waiting for.
